nope.... diameter... one of those things....
Its definately no fun working in the cold, I was working with the garage door open to get some of the fumes out and some water sitting in the hull was freezing solid while i was working!

Thanks man!
Motor is IN!
not bolted down.. the theory of not needing shims (accoriding to WDK) is definately not true... motor will need shimming

so does that mean your bolts will be the right length?
maybe you need to shim the hooks too? lol

well obvioulsy it has the shorter bolts to save the weight that the extra shims will make up! it all equals out

nah man, if it isn't ready to ride, its a build. haha. like steve said, its easier to list the few stock parts then all the aftermarket. Those parts don't install themselves. 
Steve,l did not have that problem with my hull or pump.When l dropped my 61X motor in last year,l was expecting to have to shim.And no shims in the pump either.Was MD having a problem with his pump l saw on here yesterday?

i noticed as well the tube for the steering cable could have done with being a little bigger, i have an a/m steering cable and it was tight, i struggled on my rev hull to get the steering cable out, as soon as you get any sand or crap in there your screwed
